Re: Speaker box venting

They are going to be placed in my kick panel vents. The air comes in from the cowl. Sow water gets in there and drains down the vents and out the bottom of the vent.

Like others have said, replacement coax's are set up for big space (relative) like the decklid using the trunk as a "box". I've even used foam baffles for 6 1/2 components in doors and cut out some of the bottom. Still have all the air they want, but 95% protected from dripping water or condensation.

I like the new upper end Kickers btw. A lot better than they were a couple years ago as long as you're not entry level. Sound is super subjective though, everybody has their own taste.
